 they are very fine. Can ship them in bud, which insures their arrival in perfect condition. 



GLADIOLUS, $6.00 to $8.00 per 100. There is a larger supply of them now. In assorted colors, we can furnish 

 them in large quantity. When special colors are wanted, it is advisable to order in advance. 

 VALLEY, $3.00 to $4.00 per 100. A good supply of the usual satisfactory grade.

PHILADELPHIA. 



The Eastern Market. 



The cut flower market continues over- 

 loaded, mostly with flowers of poor qual- 

 ity. There are great quantities of low 

 grade stock that nobody wants. Of 

 course this can only be moved at low 

 figures when it can be moved at all. 

 There seems to be rather more business 

 than a. week ago, some local commence- 

 ments and some excellent out-of-town or- 

 ders consuming quite a fair quantity of 

 the best stock. Beauties are decreasing 

 in number, while the demand for them 

 is active. Valley continues in brisk 

 demand; the supply, owing to the liot 

 Weather, followed by cooler, has de- 

 creased. Cattleyas and white "dons" 

 are in fair demand, but there are not 

 enough of them to make much noise. 

 Gladioli are ending indoors and begin- 

 ning outdoors. Sweet peas are plentiful, 

 but those not watered are short in tho 

 stem. As always after extremely hot 

 weather, some eastern stock is being 

 brought in to'supply quality. 



The tone of the market was improved 

 June 17, with prospects of a change to 

 much better conditions. 



The Club Outing. 



Be sure that you do not forget to go 

 to the Beading' terminal next Monday 

 afternoon, June 22, in time for the 1:43 

 p. m. train for Taber. If you cannot

 business, for a rule of the afternoon is
